"I have hired Luigi on multiple occasions and the result was always more than I expected, I recommend Luigi

to all my clients and my friends, cause I know that he will always deliver a character that you will absolutely

love. Luigi's characters looks amazing in 3d as-well, I had the chance to model one of the character and I

couldn't ask for a better concept."
